Odd move? Kinda. But kinda not. Bobby V took a job as the director of health and public safety in Stamford, Conn., a couple years ago after leaving a managerial job. He also ran a sports bar some years back.

Perhaps he has a "Bobby V. Bucket List" that we're not privy to and it's full of things like:

• "Lead a Japanese team to a championship."
• "Make one of baseball's most storied franchises a sideshow for a year."
• "Invent popular lunch item."
• "Make the Guinness book for oyster shucking."
• "Beat 'Super Mario Bros.' in less than 10 minutes." (What? You don't think he could?)
